hi girlies
i havent been on here for ages havent really had chance since i had lil man.. hope every one is ok xxx

has any one got any ideas how i can earn some extra cash? christmas is coming quickly and i am worried we cant afford it!
trouble is i do have lil man to deal with but the good thing is bobbi is now at school three afternoons a week so i could do something from home!
there is already avon girlies around here so that option is out of the window!
i have also changed all i can in the house internet, insurance etc etc to save money which i have but we are still pushing it each month..
any advice welcome!!

I'm having the same problem, and I'm trying to sell stuff on ebay!!

Have a clear out of your house, and see if there's anything you can sell.

Also you could see if there are any leaflet delivery jobs going? At least then you can wrap LO up warm in the pram and take him along.

Or you could sell stuff at a car boot sale? As well as clearing stuff out of your house, you can buy things in bulk off ebay then sell them. You obviously have to spend a bit of money in the first place but I know people who have made quite a lot of money by doing that!!

i do alot of the online surveys! ive recieved a check for £50, 2 checks for £30 and several vouchers for £10! to be honest its not a quick way to make money! ive been doing them for nearly 2 years!

i dont know if they have one near you but here they have things where you go and pick up like a couple of boxes of different parts and sit and put them all together then return them and get paid i had a friend who used to do it. and they pay you for how many you do a bit like on eastenders the other week when heather and shirley were making those father christmases, you dont have to sell them or anything just put them together and return them

wow. that sounds like a great way to make some extra cash, especially with a LO around, wouldn't even have to leave the house to earn a bit of cash.

Wouldn't mind doing this myself, would like to know what companies do this, hope they do something like it in my area. xx

My step-dad used to do something like that ages ago for a cosmetic company that was close to us. We all joined in as well, as it was something different. lol

Not sure what companies do them these days, but I'm sure you can find something about it on the web somewhere

Just keep videotaping LO, and when he does something funny, send it off to You've Been Framed. Easy £250

I really wanted to do that but apparently they keep the vid for years and years before playing it! And by the time they do most people have moved house so never cash the cheque!
